Geography nerds unite! This is basically flag algebra at its finest. Someone turned national flags into mathematical equations and it's ridiculously satisfying! Denmark + Finland = Norway? Absolutely checks out! The pattern continues with Poland × Japan = Greenland and gets increasingly complex. My favorite is the USA - (Somalia × 49) = Liberia equation, which is basically saying "remove all those stars and you've got Liberia!" It's like vexillology (the study of flags) had a wild night with mathematics and this beautiful nonsense was born. Now I'm just sitting here trying to create my own flag equations... Lebanon is particularly clever with that perfect tree placement!
